Cadillac Awarding iPad Minis As Part Of ATS Launch Competition In The UAE

Sponsored Links

As part of celebrating the launch of the ATS sport-luxury sedan in the region, Cadillac is hosting a Facebook competition where UAE residents have a chance to win an iPad mini. To enter, participants will need to take a picture of any 2013 Cadillac ATS between February 17th and 28th and upload it to their Instagram account.

From there, the photo will be “liked” by the Cadillac Arabia Facebook page, allowing it to be automatically displayed on large screens throughout the Dubai International Financial Center (DIFC) area — where Cadillac is offering test drives of the ATS until the end of February. The participant with the “best image” will be gifted an iPad mini.

The GM Authority Take

Seems like a nice social contest.

Our recommendation would be to test drive the ATS in Dubai’s Financial Center, take her out to a cool location (The Palm Jumeira, anyone?), snap a photo (or two) of the fine Caddy, upload the pics to Instagram, drive the ATS arund Dubai some more, then take it back to DIFC, win the iPad mini, and use the $1,000 voucher you got for test driving the car to buy an ATS for yourself.

Our only question is what, exactly constitutes the “best image” in the contest, and who determines its “best” nature, but we’re sure the folks at GM Middle East have it all figured out. Questions to GM’s Middle East PR team weren’t returned at time of publication.

Update: GM Middle East provided us with the following contest rules:

There are 2 iPad to win, one iPad every 6 days as the competition runs for 12 days. The “pic of the day” is selected by the marketing team. The pictures of the day from the first 6 days of the competition will enter the draw to win the first iPad mini and the same goes for the second iPad mini.

Competition is open to UAE residents only that have a valid resident visa
